However, I only want registered user to vote, so I turned it On and I get the "You need to register to vote" prompt. Looking at the JS, the hikashop_vote_user_id variable was declared as " ". I have noticed the same case in the demo shop as well. Please have a look at my website and see if things are in order? P.S. I have PM-ed you my website link because it still under development, so I don't want it to be shared publicly yet. Thank you for your help!

So you can't up/down a vote based on the same computer. I add in the TODO list to improve this part of the comments.

But I still can't get vote to works only for registered user, even when they log in from different place/comp. The returned msg is "You must be registered in order to post a vote". Anyway, I kept the option "Users must be registered to note other comments" off, else none of my users can vote. At the very least, same user from the same comp can't double vote. :whistle: Yeah, it will be nice to see some improvements on that and maybe get ride of the JS err msg.
